Well, for example, Kobe can't shoot efficiently, pass, defend, or rebound anywhere near as well as LeBron (and this all shows in the career statistics, not that an unbiased observer would need them). LeBron's freakish size, athleticism, and incredible basketball IQ allows him to do things on the court that Kobe just can't. What else is there?

The mental part. That is the part where I continue to say LeBron will never come close to touching MJ.

LeBron only has a killer instinct when he chooses to. We can knock on Kobe all we want for not always hitting the big shot. But the fact is, Kobe always wants the ball when it matters. LeBron too often looks mentally overwhelmed to handle the big moments.
